  Notes: "Italic" is a cursive form of roman, designed to replicate
         handwriting. "Oblique" is a text style created by slanting
         a roman font to simulate italics. "Roman" characters have a
         vertical stem. For details about type setting terminology,
         see for instance http://www.subnetwork.com/typo/

         Certain fonts can be missing on some output devices.

entities

  In PostScript output that uses PostScript fonts, Greek characters,
  diacritics, ligatures and some special symbols can be created.
  This can be done both by entering the PS octal code for the symbol
  or by using the SGML entity name.

  When using the PS code, remember that the backslash that precedes
  the symbol number is by default an escape character in Garfield.
  You must therefore set the escape character to something else
  before using these codes. It is therefore probably easier to use
  the SGML entities.

  The correspondance for some symbols commonly used in French, German
  and Polish is listed in the table below. The SGML entity names for
  most Greek characters are easy to guess: α, β, Ζ etc.
  The terminal sigma and alternative theta are in the table, accented
  Greek characters (dialytica and tonos) are currently not available
  via entities (they are not in the standard Greek PostScript fonts).

  PostScript characters are as a rule not visible on the screen.

  Note 1: The letter "S" after the octal PostScript code indicates
          that the character comes from the Symbol font, a "G"
          indicates that the letter comes from the Special font.

          inside Garfield) can be found at:
